Borough of Spring Grove

Borough building in festive "dress". We have some beautifully decorated homes in the Borough this year. It's a great way to start and end the day driving through to see them.

As we move into winter and the potential for inclement weather, it is important to preserve the new sidewalks along Main Street. Each of our Borough residents received a letter with information in regards to safe snow removal. The link below provides further information and tips to safely remove the hazards of ice and snow while preserving our new sidewalks. If you have questions, please call the Borough office. Happy holidays and a Happy New Year as well! ... https://www.mrpavement.com//how-to-melt-ice-without-concre

Thank you to Scott and Bob for helping to decorate the Borough office!

Since 2011, National Ugly Christmas Sweater Day has grown to be an international event. Now occurring on the third Friday of December, the celebration gives holiday lovers worldwide a chance to wear their ugly Christmas sweaters. In 2014, they partnered with Save the Children in their Make the World Better with a Sweater campaign. Each year, ugly Christmas sweater wearers, decorate, shop, and do their darndest to out ugly last year’s ugliest sweater. Whether they sport the... most lights or colors, bells or characters, ugly sweater wearers find the most ribbon and felt ladened sweaters and festoon them with glitter so blinding no Dustbuster invented will capture the wave left behind. The sweaters serve as beacons of light so bright, Rudolph himself will someday be out of a job. However, don’t be sad. So often Rudolph is featured on many of the sweaters. Elfs, donkeys, snowmen, and many other holiday characters we love and adore find their way to these ugly monstrosities. It’s all part of the fascination with the holiday. So, join in the fun. Celebrate and donate, too. HOW TO OBSERVE #UglyChristmasSweaterDay Try these tips to take the prize: Animal or cartoon characters with a holiday theme give sweaters a kitsch feel. Think reindeer, snowmen, mice, kittens or elves. Select ridiculous colors. The more they clash, the better. Embellish. Scratch that. Over-embellish! Pom-poms, bells, felt, tinsel, or any other glittery, jingly items lying around the house. Add a collar, dickey, or ruffle. Electrify it! Put Rudolph to shame and go to the head of the team with bright, flashing lights! Give it some 80s flair with shoulder pads. Wear your ugliest Christmas sweater.
